2013 Portland Rose Festival Grand Floral Parade Float Photos

(June 8, 2013, Portland, Oregon)Perfect blue skies, several new float sponsors and a touching Make-A-Wish surprise made the 2013 Grand Floral Parade memorable. Reser's Fine Foods captured the Sweepstakes Award with its energetic alligator-in-a-boat titled "Find Your Party Animal." Alaska Airlines delivered a spectacular entry with "BEARing Wishes" and surprised one of the young float riders with a Make-A-Wish trip to Alaska. Highlights of the 2013 Grand Floral Parade entries are pictured here in order of appearance. Also see Grand Floral Parade Marching Band Photos.
